Remarks
Just before the bright light suddenly disappeared there was a large ball of what appeared to be fire. I didn't realize what I was viewing at first. I thought it was a plane, but it flying too low and my mind couldn't comprehend the brightness of the light. Suddenly there was a huge ball of bright light.
